Plaquette: A hardware-aware design platform for fault-tolerant quantum computers
Hardware teams building fault tolerant quantum computers (FTQCs) must decide which imperfections to suppress, and that decision requires the logical performance of the architecture under the device's actual noise. Hardware noise often departs from the stochastic Pauli models used by scalable stabilizer simulators: superconducting transmons leak out of the computational subspace, neutral atoms scatter through inter...
